APPT Macau 2008 report

Hi,

I must be a master in long delayed reports lol.. well, I must say the Macau trip wasn't a very big success, every tourney I joined and played, I busted out.. not doing anything wrong actually, I think I made the correct decision every time on the key point.. but the cards just didn't want to run my way.

On the other hand, I had lots of fun going out and playing together with my friends who joined me for this trip. I guess Macau is really only a nice place for us poker players, must be strange for other people.. but well, I tried to make the best of it, and didn't focus too much on playing poker since, I wasn't alone, and I think everyone enjoyed themselves, although we spend a shit crazy amount of money.

Also spend and meet up with the singapore poker playing crew, and went out with them and did some clubbing, while meeting up with other poker pro's and even some big names showed up at the cash tables.

Finally also got the chance to visit the Venetian, and walked around there a bit, really nice to visit and see how much money that must have been invested in there.

Anyways, I surely had some memorable moments and lots of fun... only wish I ran a bit better in tourneys than I'm doing right now, but it's all good.. my cash games is and will probably always stay my forte, and I'm not running very bad at the moment, so I won't complain.

Next year I'm thinking about doing a WPT main event.. really want to do that just once in my life, but well a 10.000$ buy-in isn't that cheap :) but I think I'm going to do it next year.
